I look forward to checking back in with you in a couple years when this turns into an inevitable ghetto to see you defend it. [/quote]

Yet more predictable "DOOM AND GLOOM" from the right...[/quote]

You think that this is just from the right?  Where are these righties that live in MoCo? You think that local democrats all
welcome these zoning changes?[/quote]

Since the voters of Montgomery County elect the members of the Montgomery County Council, and the members of the Montgomery County Council vote on the zoning changes, I'm going with: yes, the majority of voters in Montgomery County are ok with the zoning changes.[/quote]
The MNCPPC structure was set up one hundred years ago by corrupt racist property owners so they could control real estate development in Montgomery and PG County. It is a governance structure for planning that you will not find anywhere else in Maryland, the region or the country. It’s also proven to be highly dysfunctional and susceptible to corruption and scandal over the years, which is probably because that is what it was designed to do. The Montgomery County Council has proven fully incompetent and ineffective and providing oversight and accountability and the reality is that its days are numbered. Legislation has already been introduced at the state level and a “commission” has been established. It may take a decade, but the it’s days are numbered.[/quote]
